Long After Quotes

And if thought and emotion can persist in this way so long after the brain that sent them forth has crumpled into dust, how vitally important it must be to control their very birth in the heart, and guard them with the keenest possible restraint Picture Quote #1

I want to invest and have my own record label and artists. I want to have a business where my kids, kids, kids will still have something going on long after I’m gone Picture Quote #1

I think as an actor you’re lucky to have any film take on a life of its own long after it’s left the theater Picture Quote #1

Long after the bomb falls and you and your good deeds are gone, cockroaches will still be here, prowling the streets like armored cars Picture Quote #1

If you listen to really deep ambient records that don’t move too much, very still records, long after those records are finished, you might find yourself listening for hours to the sound of the room Picture Quote #1

Day after day, I spent long afternoons in the talent pool, being told how to walk, how to talk, how to sit Picture Quote #1

Prejudices subsist in people’s imagination long after they have been destroyed by their experience Picture Quote #1

An actor can remember his briefest notice well into senescence and long after he has forgotten his phone number and where he lives Picture Quote #1

Violence never settles anything right: apart from injuring your own soul, it injures the best cause. It lingers on long after the object of hate has disappeared from the scene to plague the lives of those who have employed it against their foes Picture Quote #1

There’s something about sober living and sober thinking, about facing long afternoons without the numbing distraction of anesthesia that disabuses you of the belief in the externals, shows you that strength and hope come not from circumstances or the acquisition of things, but from the simple accumulation of active experience, from gritting the teeth and checking the items off the list, one by one, even if it’s painful and you’re afraid Picture Quote #1

I run because long after my footprints fade away, maybe I will have inspired a few to reject the easy path, hit the trails, put one foot in front of the other, and come to the same conclusion I did: I run because it always takes me where I want to go Picture Quote #1

These short stories are vast structures existing mostly in the subconscious of our cultural history. They will live with the reader long after the words have been translated into ideas and dreams. That’s because a good short story crosses the borders of our nations and our prejudices and our beliefs. A good short story asks a question that can’t be answered in simple terms. And even if we come up with some understanding, years later, while glancing out of a window, the story still has the potential to return, to alter right there in our mind and change everything Picture Quote #1

Quietly they moved down the calm and sacred river that had come down to earth so that its waters might flow over the ashes of those long dead, and that would continue to flow long after the human race had, through hatred and knowledge, burned itself out Picture Quote #1

A journey, after all, neither begins in the instant we set out, nor ends when we have reached our door step once again. It starts much earlier and is really never over, because the film of memory continues running on inside of us long after we have come to a physical standstill. Indeed, there exists something like a contagion of travel, and the disease is essentially incurable Picture Quote #1

Even divorce, she thought, cannot erase all the bonds forged by years of marriage. Long after the papers are signed, decrees notarized, the ties still remain. And the most powerful tie of all is written in a child’s flesh and blood Picture Quote #1

Life goes on and on after one’s luck has run out. Youthfulness persists, alas, long after one has ceased to be young Picture Quote #1

... to experience the reality was to suffer a boredom as endless as the illness itself... the boredom of insanity was a great desert, so great that anyone’s violence or agony seemed an oasis, and the brief companionship seemed like a rain in the desert that was numbered and counted and remembered long after it was gone Picture Quote #1

Everything in this business makes sense, because it serves a real purpose, fills a need that’s a part of living. Even a single nail, like this one, fulfills a function. Drive it into a crucial place and you can depend on it to do a job, keep on doing it for a hundred years to come. Long after we’re dead and gone, both of us Picture Quote #1

Long after you’ve forgotten someone’s voice, you can still remember the sound of their happiness or their sadness. You can feel it in your body Picture Quote #1

While it is a very hard and sometimes very cruel profession, my love for the bike remains as strong now as it was in the days when I first discovered it. I am convinced that long after I have stopped riding as a professional I will be riding my bicycle. I never want to abandon my bike. I see my grandfather, now in his seventies and riding around everywhere. To me that is beautiful. And the bike must always remain a part of my life Picture Quote #1

Characters last. Beautiful writing lasts. A compelling narrative lasts. Art survives long after ideas go extinct Picture Quote #1

In my life I find that memories of the spirit linger and sweeten long after memories of the brain have faded Picture Quote #1

The great subversive works of children’s literature suggest that there are other views of human life besides those of the shopping mall and the corporation. They mock current assumptions and express the imaginative, unconventional, noncommercial view of the world in its simplest and purest form. They appeal to the imaginative, questioning, rebellious child within all of us, renew our instinctive energy, and act as a force for change. This is why such literature is worthy of our attention and will endure long after more conventional tales have been forgotten Picture Quote #1

Money and power are not your true rewards. Your name, your principles, your impeccable standards, your virtuous conduct, and remains an influence with others long after you are gone Picture Quote #1

I don’t think people were put here to be happy. I think if you decide to be an artist or a writer, you automatically accept the responsibility of being alone. However, after your 50 or 60 years are up you’ll be able to look back and see this output that you’ve done that will endure long after you’re gone, and will continue to fill the minds of millions of people Picture Quote #1

Machines have about as much warmth as a cube of ice. And that is why the horse is still part of our lives and will live on. He was here millions of years before man came upon the earth, and if the cycle is completed, he may still be thundering across the world long after man has vanished Picture Quote #1

We buy things. We wear them or put them on our walls, or sit on them, but anyone who wants to can take them away from us. Or break them.... Long after he’s dead, someone else will own those stupid little boxes, and then someone after him, just as someone owned them before he did. But no one ever thinks of that: objects survive us and go on living. It’s stupid to believe we own them. And it’s sinful for them to be so important Picture Quote #1

It did not take long after the rise of the commercial printing press before someone figured out that erotic novels were a good idea... It took people another 150 years to even think of the scientific journal Picture Quote #1

As with men, it has always seemed to me that books have their own peculiar destinies. They go towards the people who are waiting for them and reach them at the right moment. They are made of living material and continue to cast light through the darkness long after the death of their authors Picture Quote #1
